NBA 2K18: Predicting The 20 Highest-Rated Players
14. Paul George
Previous Rating: 90
Predicted Rating: 90
Key 2015/16 Stats: PPG: 23.1, APG: 4.1, RPG: 7.0
Key 2016/17 Stats: PPG: 23.7, APG: 3.3, RPG: 6.6
By joining the Thunder and Russell Westbrook, Paul George renounced the alpha-dog status he enjoyed in Indiana. This means that his stats may take a dip, although not necessarily. He'll remain the same talented player, but this might not be reflected by his numbers, which remained very consistent during his last two seasons.
George was on the cover of NBA2K17, so his rating might've been a bit exaggerated, but during the season he backed it up with his play. George was the sole reason the Pacers got into the playoffs and now, with Westbrook, he will form one of the best offensive PG-SF duos in the game.
